Designates the cells whose values are summed. In this case, sum-range does not have to have the same size and shape as cell-range-1 through cell-range-n. The actual cells that are added are determined by using the top, left cell in sum-range as the beginning cell, and then including cells that correspond in size and shape to cell-range-1 through cell-range-n. Each cell in sum-range is summed only if all of the corresponding criteria specified are true for that cell. Cells in sum-range that contain |
